    Boulevards

    Hey Guys,

    Well looking at selling the busa and going on up to the world of boulevards.
    Anyone own one/owned one (not smashed it either thanks carver) and have any comments.

    Basically enjoying longer and longer cruises now and wanting to know what people think of them? mainly the comfort but of course comments on speed, maintanence handling etc all good.

    Cheers in advance

    My GOD, It looks like a GN250, KILL IT,KILL IT,KILL IT.

    Though I'm sure it has a very nice personality (for which it should also be killed)

    Yes - it's cheaper than a 250 cruiser.

    They are good bikes, reliable and economical, the C range of cruisers are comfy as.

    I rate the 109 series bikes highly.

    C109R is my favourite.

    For comfort and touring, the C90T would be hard to beat.

    The S40? Too small. Get a bigger one and you'll be fine.

    I enjoyed the M50 - very much. If I was going back to a cruiser - I would probably buy the same again.

    Kiwirider has a write-up this month.

    And I think it looks very cool for a mid weight cruiser.

    Good bikes for cruising. We had a M50. Very reliable and the only two complaints. One. The handrips have a large diameter which gave me cramps. Two the foot pegs are way to low and scrape all the time. My mates M109R has higher pegs but they still touch on most corners. That aside, great power and comfort and good value for money. Ride a couple.

    Depending on what you want the C90T is a good touring bike, M109r is a straight line rocket. M50 would be a major step down from what your on now.

    Yamaha/Star have a good range of cruisers that are well worth a look. Kawasaki & Honda have a range of good cruisers too.

    Victory are now for sale in NZ & are reasonably priced too.

    Harley-Davidson are a well know manufacturer of cruisers & may have something you like as well.

    Don't limit yourself to just one brand, shop around
